Happy 14th Birthday E!!

Our little guy, as we used to call him, is 14 years old!! E is just a wonderful kid/young man. He has a good head on his shoulders and demonstrates maturity in many different ways.  He is creative and clever. He's pretty easy going but can be sensitive about things. He is getting along just fine in high school, managing his assignments, learning new skills, attending school events, and joining the robotics team. He is fortunate to have a nice group of friends at his high school, but still keeping in touch with people at other schools. We would prefer he reprioritized his time by putting his phone down more often, (don't we all parents!) but he remains a good sport about doing family stuff, keeping his phone out of his room, and not signing up for social media at this time. 

A few photos of him over the past year. He's really grown up.
